What is the best way for me to run a example.php? I don't
think an HTTP Servce works, but I do not understand why not. The
PHP file sends an email through gmail so there isn't an xml file
generated or anything, all I want is for Flex to just run the file.

Incidently, I should include how I figured out how to send
email through a gmail account (took me while to find everything so
I thought anyone here doing it might benefit from it):

First, you need to download the openssl binary and search
google for phpgmailer. The rest of the method is there.

Basically, I'm charting live data and I want a warning when
one of the data points is above a certain point, in the form of an
email. I wrote the php code and everything is working fine, but I
cant seem to get the http service call to run it. I have a few
other http services working fine (to collect data) but they return
an xml file.
